Don't forget to check the local college job boards for internship
positions. Many companies use intern power extensively and don't
necessarily require you to be enrolled locally or graded on the
internship. Internships will typically pay $10-$15/hour and may be
either full- or part-time.
Employers who offer internships realize that you're in training
and are willing to commit a certain amount of time and money to
assist in that training, so your lack of experience won't be a
negative. And you will gain the best of all possible experiences --
real-world. It's a great way to get your foot in the door.
HTH! Good Luck!
